The problem is the Republican voters have been sooo deluded, they will pick a moronic Canadian fundamentalist demagogue over a narcissistic American egomaniac because religion or something. Political decisions are being de-rationalized, reduced to one or two emotions, fear and hate. But, when the real primaries roll around, where will the supporters of those dropping out land? If they wanted Trump or Cruz, they'd already be in those camps. They will become Bush supporters because no Mitt. Watch the mainstream Republicans coalesce and watch the under-expectation game George played play out all over again.
But hey, what do I know? Certainly not the future!
